Do you mean deferred in the EA round, to the RD round? I don’t think there’s such a thing as you describe…

She applied EA but was waitlisted

15 percent of in state applicants were accepted RD. Only 15 percent IN state.

Out of state: 11 percent.

Very prestigious.

Sadly, that’s not how prestige is determined.

Well, it is to an extent, but a 25% in-state admit rate is not prestigious. As for oos, it is a universal second choice given that kids don’t like paying private school tuition for a state flagship — hence the poor oos yield.

True bc University of Tampa had an acceptance rate of 26% and I don't know if anyone would call it prestigious. Having said that, I do think that UVA is prestigious regardless of the acceptance rate.

Of course it is. The large majority of in state students applying are at/near the top of the class and only one out of four is getting in. And the rate is that high only because of ED.

DCUM is hllarious. We’ve now gone from “UVA admission is too hard for in state students and needs to expand or reduce OOS numbers to serve the state”
to “UVA is an easy admit.”
